New Jeep !
« on: February 28, 2013, 11:33:32 AM »
Hey all !!
I am in the process of having my new Jeep shipped up to me in Canada.
Its a 51 CJ3A.

It will be Jeep number 5 for me. The oldest, smallest and slowest one to date !

Im coming from a 350hp TJ.

Kenny,

Welcome to the 3A page. Do you have some photos?

Sounds like you have a love affair with Jeeps.  

You're right.  This will be the slowest, smallest one you own.  The old flat fender was never about speed.  You don't want to go fast anyway.  You'd miss all the gawkers and 'thumbs ups' you'll get while driving it. [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

Very cool. I remember seeing that advertised for sale. Looks like a pretty nice 3A. Let us know when it arrives.

Yes, I've seen that Willys. �I'm a huge fan of it. �Looks like Phil did very nice work on the restoration.

I'm happy for you. �

I called, and booked transport for it.
All the way from tn to Pembina, ND.
They almost insisted on an enclosed carrier.
I agreed.... Quite a bit more, but safer, I guess.

I'm excited for you Kenny.

Do you have all 5 Jeeps currently?  If so, once your 3A is home, line 'em up and do a family photo!!

Just wanted to let you know, I've enjoyed watching your progress in getting your new CJ home.  I'm sure several others are too.  We're excited for you.
